When I think of Dahlias I think of earwigs too, MrsRufusdog789
I'd never plant them.

I'm not a fan, it makes me think of an Indian lentil dish.

Yes your intended nickname doesn't follow the pronunciation.

Dahlia is pronounced daylia.

I think you probably want Dalia if you want the nickname Dali.

FWIW I love Dalia
